The conversation, held between a couple sitting at a table and drinking wine, kicks off the delicate Background to a Seduction, by South African artist Gregg Smith. Alternating between stretches of silence and conversation, the couple remains in the same place/stage setting. The viewers watch from different angles and locations. A subtle voyeurism connects us to a narrative that drifts through space. The location here represents transit, a passage to the confluence of gazes on the scene.
